Out of Country

We’ve all seen footage of rock stars on stage or in the studio. But what do they do in their off time? Unscripted, informal and insightful, we travel with well-known music makers including Kathleen Edwards, Colin James, Kim Stockwood, Doc Walker, Emerson Drive and Tara Oram as they make their great escape from the hectic and demanding world of recording and touring. From New Zealand to Europe, OUT OF COUNTRY takes the road less travelled as our music star tour-guides step out of their element and into the best kind of trouble.

Pet Heroes

PET HEROES showcases extraordinary stories of animal heroism. In each episode of this documentary series, two incredible stories are told through interviews with pet owners and family members and dramatic re-enactments.

These are the real-life stars of PET HEROES, a series about the love and loyalty of man’s best friend.

Mystery Cars
